Conley, a Muslim convert, was arrested April 8 at DIA after telling FBI agents she was traveling to Syria to use her American military training from the U.S. Army Explorers to aid Islamic militants waging jihad -- or holy war -- even though she knew that it was illegal, according to federal court records released Wednesday.

She said "legitimate targets of attack" included U.S. military bases, government employees and public officials, the documents say.

Conley has been charged with conspiring to help a foreign terrorist organization. She's being held in Denver County Jail without bond.ISIS insurgents have been fighting to topple the governments of Iraq and Syria.
